Video shows Nova Scotia shooter stopping to change clothes during deadly rampage
Video from a surveillance camera appears to show the Nova Scotia shooting suspect stopped briefly during his rampage, shortly before he was killed by police.
Unconfirmed footage appears to show shooting suspect 51-year-old Gabriel Wortman stopping his mock RCMP police cruiser outside a business in Millbrook First Nation.
The short clip shows a man matching Wortman's description pulling up and exiting the car to remove a jacket before putting on a yellow reflective vest and driving off again.
The timestamp on the video shows it was recorded at 10:55 a.m. local time on April 19. Shortly after, police tweeted that Wortman had been seen travelling southbound on Highway 102 from the Brookfield area, about eight kilometres from where the video was taken.
